INITIAL START-UP

1. Keep the permeate water line to drain for this procedure.
2. Fully open the concentrate valve #10 (counter clockwise). (Figure 1B, Page 17)
3. Fully close the recycle valve # 9(clockwise)(if applicable). (Figure 1B, Page 17)
4. Fully open the throttle valve #12 (counter clockwise). (Figure 1B, Page 17)
5. Return position of the bypass white lever inline on the solenoid valve #1. (Figure 1B,

Page 16)

6. Turn the RO system on #8 and adjust the concentrate (waste) valve #10, recycle

valve # 9 (if applicable), and the throttle valve to the designed flow and pressure.
(Figure 1B, Page 17)

7. Inspect the system for leaks.
8. Allow the system to run for one hour to flush the preservative solution from the

system.

9. After one hour, shut down the system.
10. Re-direct the permeate water back to the tank and then turn the system back on.
11. Record the readings daily for a week. After a week, record the readings once a

week.

Adjust the pump throttle valve and concentrate valve until the correct flow

is achieved. For example, DT-10000 should be adjusted until it produces about
10000 GPD or 6.94 GPM of permeate (product water) at 77˚F. Design flow might be
achieved below 150 PSI.

GPM = GPD/1440

Example:

6.94 =10000/1440
